I'm sorry, I'm killing myself trying to figure out where this would go. Does the metal rod attach directly to the battle saddle, does he carry this with his hooves? It looks like there is an axis for it to turn and such. Sorry to bother if there's not actually an answer.

But is it elevated or something? From the battle saddles I've seen, the rifle is usually attached to their sides, making the sight of this rifle pretty much impossible to use, as well as the bite trigger. So is this connected to an arm or something the elevates it to his face or is it something a bit more secure.
